Nitro Snowboards 

The origins of Nitro Snowboards date back to 1990. Although the first collection was designed in the fall of 1989, the final decision on the name of the brand was made on January 6, 1990. Its creators were real snowboard enthusiasts Tommy Delago and Sepp Ardelt. Since its establishment, the gentlemen have been in the management team all the time and make key decisions regarding the direction of development. Throughout its history, Nitro Snowboards has focused only on the snowboard market, which is why Nitro products are perfectly refined and tailored to the needs of riders. Many solutions that are currently used in products of other snowboard brands have been created by Nitro Snowboards. Nitro Snowboards offers a large selection of boards, bindings and boots, providing riders of all ages and skill levels with a tailor-made option.

Whatever your style and terrain, Nitro is sure to have something for you. From the beginning of its existence, Nitro has been focusing on a family atmosphere, which is why all the players know each other very well and support each other, which allows them to create one of the best teams in the world. Some of the first distributors selling Nitro gear are still in the family today, and team rider Eero Ettala has been riding Nitro boards for 20 years! Importantly, Nitro has always supported and encouraged its riders to create their own projects. Nitro Snowboards has been releasing its own film productions for years, which are very popular..
